I'm sincerely looking forward to the course and our first project is based around typography - boring to some, but I enjoy it :) It is a group project which is intense for a first project - especially as the turnaround is one week and we have to produce a typography matrix by the end...
However I am content with my group (aside from one member who we couldn't identify for 3 days of searching as he was determined not to be found.... we have him now though thankfully!)
For our first day of studio work though we were given very simple tasks of; draw a page of circles, draw a page of triangles and squares, draw letters, and draw a full upper and lower case alphabet...
(they never specified the english alphabet so I used Greek)
